The Megillah was read twice— once for the community and a second time for women and children. Mishloach manot was given out. A fascinating show performed by the Hoop Wizard kept the crowd captivated and added to the jovial mood. A festive meal was served, followed by spirited dancing.

In Jersey City, Rabbi Baruch Lepkivker of Bris Avrohom read the Megillah numerous times throughout Purim at senior homes and local businesses. At each location, mishloach manot was distributed and a Purim party was held.

At Newark Airport, Megillah was read around the clock at all terminals and lounges for close to 100 travelers.
